20. GLOBAL BRIDGE BOARD INSTALLATION
WccUtility.EXE Program Setup
Considerations and Limitations for
Global Bridge
To setup the Global Map for the “WCC II to WCC III Global Bridge”,
you only have to fi ll out the data in one “SetGlobalMapView”
window even if you have multiple “WCC II to WCC III Global
Bridges”. This is because all of the “WCC II to WCC III Global
Bridges” will have the same global analog/binary value that will
come from the WCC II front-end computer.
There are no limitations to the number of global analogs or global
binaries that you can setup from within the “SetGlobalMapView”
window. Of course, you cannot setup more than the WCC II limi-
tations of 128 global analogs and 256 global binaries.
The BACKTASK.EXE program that is running on the WCC III
- MCD requires that the WccUtility.exe program be connected
(via an IP connection) to the WCC III - MCD, that the WccUtility.
exe program be opened and running at all times, and that the
“SetGlobalMapView” window also be opened at all times. This IP
connection must be made so that BACKTASK.EXE can fetch and
retrieve the global values from the “old” WCC II system.
If you close the “SetGlobalMapView” window or the WccUtility.
exe program, the BACKTASK.EXE program will not be able to
retrieve any global values from the “old” WCC II system. This
means that the “SetGlobalMapView” window that does the global
analog and global binaries value transfers will not transfer these
global analog and global binaries values from the “WCC II to
WCC III Global Bridge” board to BACKTASK.EXE program of
WCC III - MCD.
